Disney fans remained upset after the official Instagram account belonging to the company’s theme park was hacked.
After some offensive posts were posted on the Disneyland account, the company was clearly able to regain control and remove them.
The post contained media filled with offensive and racist language.
One included a statement: “I’m a super hacker here to get revenge on Disneyland.”
In addition to Instagram, Disneyland’s official Facebook account also appears to have been temporarily affected.
Both Facebook and Instagram are owned by parent company Meta.
The hackers called themselves “David Doss” and made their first post at 3:50am local time (11:50am in the UK today).
A total of four posts and one story were added to the Instagram feed and remained live for less than an hour before being removed.
